Today’s translation is an AKB48 song. It is translated more literally rather than poetically for understanding, and some of the subjects remain vague. I hope it still manages to be readable!

Valkyria Chronicles - ”One Wish” Lyrics Translation
Today’s song is “One Wish”, by Inoue Hikari –used as the second Ending Theme for Valkyria Chronicles (the animation). I used the Video Game OST cover here, however.
The game is one of my favorites, and not very many people have played it. The anime was not as good in my opinion.

Code Geass – “Continued Story” Lyrics Translaton
Source: Here.
Continued Story is the final song in my favorite anime, Code Geass. This time, I put the kanji with romaji beneath it, followed by the translation immediately. This makes for best ease of reading when listening to the song and understanding the words all at once –like karaoke.
Writer/Composer/Arrangement：黒石ひとみ (Hitomi Kuroishi)
Singer: Hitomi
Code Geass – “Innocent Days” Lyrics Translation
Source: Here
A lovely song from my favorite anime, Code Geass. By Hitomi Kuroishi.
This time, I put romaji right below the respective Japanese line for easier reading. It’s a rather poetic song, the translation lacks the poetic finesse for the sake of meaning.
Note: This song is sung in a made up language by the writer/composer/singer, Hitomi. So it is not exactly “sing-along-able”, but you will understand the meaning.
